Stututu. Mine just goes shhhh though.

[@positivesquad]

@@isaacsellers700able Thats what they are supposed to do. If it only does stututu your BOV does not work.

[@isaacsellers700able]

@@positivesquad haha I know man, or if the turbo is fluttering

[@fl_girl8451]

So a BOV is basically a car burp

[@brandonalexander8518]

Thank you for the explanation on differences between the two. BOVs vs. DVs isn't inherently obvious to someone who is new to turbo systems.

[@meanmanofsteel]

You talked about a blow off valve at the end of the video you release today (9 Oct 2022). I honestly don’t know what they do, so I did a KZbin search and the first video to pop up was this one! A video from 4 years ago! Awesome!

[@mohammedgangat5799]

99.9 % of people fit a blow off valve or dump valve as it is also called just for the sound...

[@xx96sunfirexx]

love these videos. you guys are so filled with knowledge. keep it up.

[@Deutscheautoparts]

+richard conte Thanks for the feedback. We appreciate it very much.

[@consumerthis3169]

I have a 2021 Stinger GT awd, I thought I knew how turbos worked until I watched this. Makes so much more sense now. Looking into buying some blow off valves, but left w some education! Thanks!

[@stevedoubleu99B]

Damn! I wanted one for the noise, but what you say makes a lotta sense. Electronic systems on cars these days even seem to know what you had for breakfast!!!!!!

[@billyp.7889]

Maybe discuss diagnosing a bad one and talk about DV options, that are on the market and what situation, you should upgrade from a stock version.

[@KumaBean]

I'm not a car person so I'm not very clued-up, and as a result of a comment on another video I had to look up the difference between turbo's and dump valves, I didn't know that turbo's went 'psssshhh' too, now I do, and why, cheers mate! 🤝 🍻

[@jonahdavies8661]

Already had an idea how the turbo system works and where the dump valve fits in. His video gave great information and clear viewing of the whole process.

[@rogerpotempo]

omg, now that makes sense. My tune shop told me i can't add a blowoff valve. Now i understand why. I wanted the cool sound, but not at the expense of my engine.

[@rickyhanson8863]

I needed this because I want to put a turbo and a blow of valve for my little 200cc four wheeler

[@shomaru45]

This video was helpful like CRAZY! Thank you my man! Your words and diagram helped me out a lot!

[@Deutscheautoparts]

Awesome!! So glad to hear

[@mendez_guzman9661]

I like the fact that he says if ur light Modding your car. No need to upgrade you diverter valve/ blow of valve. I’m anticipating once you going stage two you should consider upgrading the DV/BOV.

[@christianverde2498]

Hit boost Nobody: Blow off valve:sssssssssstututututututu

[@LogieT2K]

Christian Verde bovs dont dose they just psssssh

[@timmimonrdm3634]

the stututututututuututut comes from the air backlashing into the turbo turbine when you dont have a BOV

[@NOTaGLI]

Also that noise can come from the wastegate too if I'm not mistaken

[@GenerationRx]

@@LogieT2K My ASS!! All my 2020 GTI has is (APR intake, turbo inlet, turbo muffler delete, Forge BOV). Turbo flutter starts around 15psi, and sounds oohh soo sexy. I was surprised at how controllable the sound is, makes the car a one-note musical instrument. Drive light and granny it, it's barely heard. Dog it out a little, massive flutter and hiss. An excellent addition for driver/car familiarity and engagement. As for drops in boost, it's barely noticeable. Kinda like the car is, WITHOUT a BOV on it 😉

[@spacewizard69r96]

can you do a video on the vacuum lines on BOVs and how they work?

[@nickyjam770]

Good video but still wondering what opens or how to BOV opens up to let the pressure go.

[@timothyfogarty9007]

Either way you go both are a nice upgrade compared to the plastic components from stock.

[@nyn199a72686]

I love the sound my turbo makes on my Audi S5 since I added a BOV

[@the1whoseesthroughu]

really good vid man, I just got an A3 and was think of this. Now I know its a later addon.

[@jeansalazar7812]

Great video, now I know how it works, thanks! Greetings from Costa Rica!

[@ajaythomson22]

I didn't know what that pssshhh sound was untill I saw this video ! thanks (:

[@avhc661eric]

So my question is. I recently bought a Forge atmospheric BOV for my 2014 mk6 gti 2.0tsi and the only mod under my hood is a CAI. In your opinion, can I install it now even with my stock ko3? or would it be safe to install it later this year when I purchase a ko4 or bigger turbo for my car? Thanks for awesome videos. You guys are amazing!

[@Sei.sette.]

Really well explained, thanks

[@1flynlow]

what I needed to know is how do the vacuum lines run on a BOV

[@costinc.6525]

keep in mind some valves have a hose to provide extra boost or vacuum on the spring side to keep it shut or to help it release faster 🖒

[@estebanod]

What's the benefits of using a BOV over a BPV?

[@samgab]

So, is there any reason I can’t disconnect the low pressure recirc side from my factory valve, and blank off the hole in the side of the intake, so as to turn the factory divert valve into a vent to atmo BOV? The actual valve unit is functionally the same, isn’t it? Cheers!

[@davidrsmith2417]

Your lead photo shows a DV with two lines. Most simple have only one line - for manifold vacuum. Q1: Is the 2nd line for turbo Boost sense? Q2: what benefit is an IPCV added to a simple DV (a DV with 1 vacuum line control)? Porsche 944 Turbo, Forge DV. Adding a Forge IPCV.

[@curtismann6851]

What damage is caused if your diverter valve isn't working? Let's say for like two years!!! (Found out mine was disconnected since I bought it on a 1.8L T, wondered what that bird flutter sound was after an acceleration :( . Somehow never threw any codes and wasn't caught in two dealer inspections!

[@rogerpotempo]

adding a cold air intake helps to make the bov louder.

[@nathangelios9477]

are you stupid

[@Jonathan-qc1ff]

lol have you done it before telling him his stupid, he's actually right.

[@s5filty]

a short ram makes the turbo louder too

[@doc.voltold4232]

Nathan Gelios c

[@SjP_92]

Same as "open filter" i guess? You'll hear intake air sound/spool up more easily too

[@samusn97]

Nice video. So this might have impact on air fuel mixture but does it impact turbo lag? Like increasing it cause you have to rebuild the intake charge? Or am I missing something?

[@DM-dv5jx]

Good video with clear explanation 👍

[@rickl7024]

Back in the day I used to soup up a few turbo dodge cars,,, non of those used mass air flow sensors,, all you had to do was trick the map sensor from showing a overboost condition

[@abbyreuma2973]

My question is, will having a blow off valve cause you to take longer to build up boost because you're letting out pressure?

[@T5_T-Rell]

a correctly functioning blow off valve only opens when the throttle plate is closed and you lift off the gas....it doesn't bleed off boost or cause boost to take longer to build up. It just relieves the built up boost once the throttle plate is closed.

[@liette89]

Awesome video. best DV/BOV explanation on KZbin!

[@valkarcy]

Very clear and well described!

[@Michael-vy9kn]

Thanks for that video :) The MK7 GTI has no mass airflow sensor, but manifold absolute pressure instead, right? So a BOV would be OK for that car?

[@Deutscheautoparts]

+Michaël S correct

Hey man nice video, thanx, i have a 2015 Suzuki Alto RS Turbo (standard KEI car) this small car has amazing fuel economy and has a decent torque as well. This is my daily driver. Question is, iam interested in adding a BOV, should i? the only reason why i wanna do this is the psssshhhhh sound hehe. If i do, will this affect my fuel economy? The existing setup has the recirculating thing iam sure. Please share your thoughts. Thank you.

[@iRant4u]

Woah, didn't expect to see Charlotte! Maybe I can swing by and you guys can explain to me what the hell is wrong with my car lol

[@luisitolasvegas]

Once you installed the BOV Kit and want to switch to DIV, can you use the same kit or can you just swap the Valves? I sent an email about this with no response.

[@namsteydafuqaway]

I've Polo GT TSI can i use forge blow off valve in that ? Worth it or not?

[@harshithsadhana7475]

can you buy one in india

[@MegaDav0]

Good video. I have a mk7 gti, I always liked the phhhsss sound, but mk7 comes with diverted. It would be wise to upgrade the diverter according to this video?

[@Deutscheautoparts]

+MegaDavO A BOV would work great on the MK7. We will have a DIY coming soon.

[@ggreyshade]

i get enough blow off sounds from my DV sending the air back to a fat intake, definitely dont need a BOV on my mk7!

[@13daprofessor]

What are you thoughts on so etching like the GFB Dv+? On a 2.0t for instance.

[@garrettjohnsen]

Is it normal to hear a little bit of air being released from the blow off valve while cruising at higher RPMs? If I'm driving on the freeway and am in or near my power band, I can hear a little bit of air coming out before shifting. Also, if I am going wide open throttle from second to third, I don't here any BOV noise until the RPM's drop down and I'm getting on it again. I just bought a modified 135i and am new to the turbo world. Not sure what is normal and not. Car is running great and putting down appropriate dyno numbers.

[@zin3374]

I know this might be a dumb question but im learning do u need a turbo for a blow off valve

[@paranormalstoner9035]

I recently bought a forge blow off valve for my Apr stage 1 Mk6 GTi and the CEL came on a day after I installed it. Should I remove it?

[@Boatshedding]

I have APR Stage 1 on my mk7, would it be worth it to upgrade or will the stock one be fine. (The stock turbo valves sound aloud louder since stage 1) Thanks.

[@jnguyen625]

Say if you're stage 2... intake..dp..tune....would you recommend a blow off valve or a recirculated one?

[@vancemccarthy2554]

A lot of work for making the car slow when changing up through the gears.

[@xtruma]

So what is the differences between wastegates and dump/blowoff valves?? :/ they are all there to relieve the engine or tubine from the excess pressure into the whole syste, aren't they??

which BOV can I buy for a Buick verano 2.0T 2013? please if you can send me a link where I can buy it, will be very helpful

My question, if i not install the blow off / valve, into my turbo car, it’s that will effect to my engine..? Or just effect to my turbo only..?

[@iAmAJBish]

I see you have a video about how the rear center valance sound but you dont have an install video of it, i am buying a carbon fiber diffuser but i dont know how to take off the rear lower valance on my mk7 tsi could you maybe do a video on how to take it off

[@Deutscheautoparts]

+iAmAJBish We are sorry but this is not something we are planning at this time.

[@mariusfauru]

BOV shuld be before the intercooler, that way you don't circulate hot useless air to heat up your intercooler, also releasing pressure earlier

[@ashwinkumar6728]

Quick question vw 1.2 Ltr gt tsi is it advisable to add a blowup valve with an ecu remap are we talking about power loss or gain?. Also also if I add an Hsk blow up valve for instance do I need to add a bigger turbo and inter cooler ? Please help need to figure this out

You would have to re-program your engine's software

[@matess3655]

Pavlen Nekolov i have a 1.3 Škoda felicia :D

[@650hpreventon]

You don't need one until over psi, not saying if you had 6 psi you don't need it. But I'm saying you must need one over 7psi, most stock turbo or S/C comes with one, it's just some of them don't release boost out faster enough can cause turbo stall.

[@McEddyOfficial]

:D Felina for the win :D :D 1.4 MPI, pořádnej lauf a jedeeem :D

[@sylenzf4748]

I have a pressure gauge on my charge air side. How much psi should the max be before the blow off valve opens?

[@lsg_mk7r352]

How much boost pressure can the stock Volkswagen DV valve hold because it starts to have boost bleed off problems ?

[@NeverMore_or_whatever]

How can you tell how BOV will sound without installing it( if it is possible).Does the engine influence that or just the quality of the BOV?

[@Deutscheautoparts]

The BOV design determines sound

[@tanguy362]

I have a question and it goes as follows: why aren't blow offs stock? It may be a dumb question, but i can't seem to find the answer online. So maybe some of you can help me!

[@johnti8603]

Nice Job brother

[@Birkulumiste7]

If your car holds in 1 second by accelerate and also makes a deep heavy whistle sound. Can it be failing or leaking bov ?

[@thinkdunson]

so my completely stock 2017 gti s shows up to 33-34 psi under heavy acceleration. i heard somewhere that uniwhatever max boost is somewhere between 20-25, and apr would be somewhere between 25-30. so stock being higher than that seems questionable. do you guys know if the built in boost gauge is accurate?

[@noon346]

John David Dunson u have to subtract the 14 psi from atmosphere

[@pwdt4r313]

Doesn’t account for atmospheric pressure

[@tiko5876]

Flavio Stroher that’s what the fuck I’m saying!

[@jasongtivr6]

How will the bov/turbo act if the spring isn't right for the pressure?

[@JaceJackson]

Jason Kellogg depending on spring size, it will either never open or leak boost. If it never opens because of a heavy spring it will cause compressor surge (very bad on the turbo) if it is too light of a spring chances are you’ll just leak boost but it will still function.

[@On7ineOptix]

awesome. so easy to understand

[@ahfa1987]

How do I know if my car has a mass airflow sensor? I got a mini cooper s 2014 f56, I always wanted to know, would it be ok to add a bov if what i'm going for is that sound? I'm not sure on how much turbo it exactly puts out but I've been told around 8 Psi

[@TheAmitkatyal]

hi, is aftermarket blow off valve affect the performance or power? in a car.i have megane rs 250 which doesn't have any blow off. i am considering to buy forge system for my Renault magane but i am bit confused wit now.
